OSHA is a national public health agency that deals with or ensures safe and healthy working conditions for workers. It provides guidelines for safe work in the workplace in ports and on ships, as well as in other industries. Safety is very important when working in the port and on a ship, as various injuries in the workplace can quickly occur. OSHA regularly checks that employers follow to safety standards. According to OSHA requirements, an employer must properly train its employees, both practically and theoretically. The tasks of the employer are to ensure proper occupational safety, training and that the equipment with which the worker works is approved and that it is not damaged. The employer must ensure that his employees are familiar with all regulations. It is important that all employees work well in the team as well as communicate well, as this is the only way to ensure a safe work environment. Constant and clear communication is required to avoid injuries during cargo operations. During the cargo handling work process, all participants must be vigilant and ensure safety on board the ship and at the port.
